A couple discussing the merits of the work currently showing at the ACMI in Melbourne.
Light: Works from Tate’s Collection features 'Raemar, Blue' which is one of the earliest and most significant of James Turrell’s ‘Shallow Space Constructions’ works which combine architecture, sculpture, light and space to completely envelop the viewer in a coloured atmosphere. 'Raemar, Blue' is an immersive spatial environment that plays with the experience of perception and the effect of light in space.
The work was first executed in 1968, an important year for Turrell which saw him expand the confines of his earlier light projections into constructed physical environments. Blue light radiates from fluorescent tubes placed behind a partition that appears to float at the back of the gallery space.

A self portrait...
Light Music (1975) by Lis Rhodes, is a work that is part of the 'Light: Works from Tate’s Collection' exhibition currently showing at the ACMI in Melbourne.
A major figure in the history of artists’ filmmaking in Britain, Rhodes is one of the early proponents of expanded cinema. Light Music positions audiences as both participants and spectators in a work revealing the experimental interrelationship of light and the moving image.

I spent a wonderful afternoon with Margaret and Tricia over the weekend at ACMI's fabulous new exhibition Wonderland.
It was a fabulousl trip through more than a century of Alice in Wonderland adaptations . . . a tapestry of props, costumes, artwork and films.
If you visit the exhibition make sure you do the Mad Hatter Tea Party at the end . . . we did it twice and it was wonderful! A visual feast!

This was my other version this months FOTF, the theme being 'Fairytale' and inspired by my recent visit to the Wonderland exhibition at ACMI.
The images within the frames were taken at the exhibition and were a part of the the life size illustrations that featured on some of the walls as you entered.
See my previous upload.
This months wonderful FOTF theme of 'Fairytales' was chosen by Beverley.
My recent visit to the Wonderland exhibition at ACMI was very timely and provided the inspiration for this collage. It is made up of five images all taken at the exhibition.
"Alice In Wonderland captures that dream state and that internal quality about why we use fairytales and folk tales to figure things out in our life and culture", Tim Burton, 2010.

With the traffic lights at red, one of twelve visiting French Air Force Dassault Mirage 2000's - No.113/12-YO crosses the main A15 road while on short finals to land back at RAF Waddington during one of the then regular North Sea ACMI range exercises - 19th November 2004.
Others there that day were five Royal Navy Sea Harrier FA.2's making one of their last such appearances before retirement and five Belgian Air Force F-16 Vipers.
With the closure of the ranges such activity was consigned to history!

Leased from/op by TransAer International. TransAer (previously Translift) was one of the original ACMI (Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance & Insurance) companies operating services for other airlines. The history below only shows major sub-leases but there were lots of 'one-off' and short-term leases in between.
I was dreading doing the history for this aircraft, it goes on for ever...
First flown in Apr-93 with the Airbus test registration F-WWIZ, this aircraft was delivered to the Orix Aircraft Corporation as N429RX in Jul-93 and stored until it was leased to Translift Airways as EI-TLE in Oct-93.
It was wet-leased to Leisure Air (USA) between Nov-94/Apr-95, TransMeridian Airways (USA) between Dec-95/Apr-96, Turkish Airlines between May/Oct-96 and TransMeridian Airways between Nov-97/Apr-97.
Translift was renamed TransAer in May-97 and became TransAer International Airways in Sep-97. The aircraft was wet-leased to Novair Airlines (Sweden) for 3 weeks in Nov-97, TransMeridian Dec-97/Apr-98, AirWorld (UK) between May/Nov-98, TransMeridian between Dec-98/Apr-99 and Britannia Airways between Apr/Oct-99.
The aircraft was returned to the lessor in Nov-99 (TransAer ceased operationa a year later in Oct-00). In Jan-00 it was leased to Airtours International Airways as G-BYTH. It was transferred to Airtours German operation, flyFTI (Frosch Touristik International) as D-ASSR in Apr-00 for the summer season, returning to Airtours as G-BYTH in Nov-00.
It was sub-leased to Skyservice Airlines (Canada) as C-GTDM in Dec-01. Confusingly, it was sub-sub-leased back to Airtours for the summer season in Apr-02. Airtours was renamed MyTravel Airlines in May-02.
The aircraft was returned to Skyservice Airlines (on paper) in Nov-02 and became G-BYTH the same day on return to MyTravel. It was transferred to MyTravel Lite in May-03 (MyTravel's attempt at 'low-cost' - it didn't work!) and was based at Birmingham (UK) for the summer season.
It returned to MyTravel Airways in Nov-03 and was sub-leased to Skyservice Airlines as C-GTDM in Dec-03, returning to MyTravel as G-BYTH in Apr-04. It was sub-leased to Skyservice again (as C-GTDM) between Nov-04/Apr-05 and between Nov-05/Apr-06.
As G-BYTH the aircraft continued in service with MyTravel. The MyTravel Group was merged into Thomas Cook Airlines in Mar-08 and it continued in service until it was returned to the lessor in Apr-10.
Later that month the aircraft was leased to Skywest Airlines (Australia) as VH-FNP. Skywest entered a franchise agreement with Virgin Australia in May-13, operating as Virgin Australia Regional Airlines.
The aircraft was withdrawn from service at the end of Apr-20 and stored at Perth, WA, Australia, due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. It remained stored at Perth until it was ferried to Sharjah and returned to the lessor in late Mar-21.
It was leased (or sold) to Olympus Airways (Greece) as SX-AQK in Apr-21 but never entered service. It remained stored at Sharjah, UAE. Now 32 years old, it's permanently retired and probably used for spares. Updated 25-Feb-25.

This is my favourite photograph of Jenny Shimizu. My flash malfunctioned, but the result was a really interesting shot! Jenny Shimizu was at the screening of "Itty Bitty Titty Committee", closing night of the Melbourne Queer Film Festival, ACMI, Federation Square, Melbourne, Australia [ref IMG_7363]
On Sunday we visited the “Wallace & Gromit and Friends - The Magic of Aardman” exhibition currently running at ACMI in Federation Square. The Aardman Studios, based in Bristol in the UK, have been creating amazing animations using clay-sculpted figures for over four decades. The exhibition shows all aspects of the creation of these animation masterpieces and was very entertaining. These two pictures of Gromit, were two of the many original sets on display at the exhibition, showing Gromit in jail in “A Close Shave” and measuring his marrow in “The Curse of the Were-Rabbit”.
The Memory Garden is a display at ACMI, the Australian Centre for the Moving Image. Each vertical pod is a projector that plays a vintage clip of indigenous people. You can pass your hand under the projector and see the images playing on your palm.

During June 1994, a number of Swiss Mirages and F-5s deployed to Waddington to use the ACMI ranges out by The Wash. Here, ACMI stands for Air Combat Manoeuvring Instrumentation.
On an otherwise overcast day, Mirage 3S J-2309 catches a ration of sunlight on the taxiway.
The aircraft is now preserved in a museum at Graz, Austria.
